Not much to say about this one. When it’s bad in Bucco Land, it’s bad. The Pittsburgh Pirates were shut out by the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday 6-0 for Pittsburgh’s seventh straight defeat. They only managed six hits on the day.
Tyler Beede drew the start on the mound and was ineffective again, going for three innings and giving up six runs on five hits with three walks and five strikeouts. Over his last three starts, Beede has given up 12 earned runs in 10 innings pitched. That’s not going to get it done anywhere, let alone in Pittsburgh where we’re allergic to scoring runs.
